United States: Nissan wants 40% sales to be electric by 2030
When Nissan launched the all-electric Leaf in 2010, the company announced its intention to bring attainable electric vehicles to the masses around the world. Thereafter, Nissan set the goal to achieve carbon neutrality across the company’s operations and the life cycle of its products by 2050. As part of this effort, by the early 2030s, every all-new Nissan vehicle offered in key markets will be electrified. Today, Nissan North America has a target that more than 40 percent of its U.S. vehicle sales by 2030 will be fully electric, with even more to be electrified.
Jeremie Papin, chairperson, Nissan Americas said, “It is critical to have industry and government working together to advance consumer adoption of EVs, as well as the manufacturing and infrastructure support to get the next-generation of electrified mobility on the road.”
To build on the success of the Leaf, which is now in its second generation, Nissan will offer the all-electric Ariya crossover in 2022. As consumer adoption increases, the Ariya will be followed by even more all-electric models to give customers choices and help them find the vehicle to meet their unique day-to-day needs.
